Description

Up for auction is a first UK pressing of the Beatles’ Abbey Road on Apple records from September 1969.This early pressing features the misaligned Apple symbol on the back sleeve that was corrected on later pressings (see photos) and the neither the sleeve nor the label list the last track, ‘Her Majesty’.

 

Matrix numbers: Side 1: YEX 749-2; Side 2: YEX 750-1.

 

 

Condition: (Graded using 'Goldmine' standards)

 

Record: VG - This disc has clearly been to a few parties,with various light marks and scuffs on both sides. There is also some spindle wear to the labels. I have test played this album in full, however, and it sounds great. No skips or pops – As powerful a sound as ever! 

 

Sleeve: G - The sleeve has also seen better days. There is a fair bit of creasing to the laminated cover (as is often the case with popular albums made this way), there is evidence of tape being used on the bottom of the sleeve and there is a 10cm tear on the back because of this. Despite the tape, the sleeve is not coming apart at all at the bottom. There are multiple small scuffs and rips to the seams and spine, but the title is clearly visible. All of this can be seen in my photos.

 

Don’t miss your chance to own this great example of one of the most important albums in Rock and Roll history.
